I The regular monthly meeting
or the Wasco County Electric &
! Water Power Co. was held in the

, city on Tuesday evening. Those
1 present beside the local members
I were, Ci. S, Carpenter of Fossil,
;Mark Gill. II. 1. Keeney. F. P.
Schow, C. I) Charles, 0. B.
: Hathaway, W. II. GrindstafT. F.
S. Munn, A. E. Clarke, and R.
A. Hollenbeck of Portland. The
first section of the survey as
made by the firm of Shipman.
Denny & Rhame was submitted
for approval to the directors.
The grades being very satisfac
tory to R. A. Hollenbeck, the
company's engineer, and the di
rectors, the survey was accepted.
The maps of definite locations of
dam sites and power plants on
the Deschutes and John Day riv
ers were also approved and have
been filed with the State Engin
eer and the Department of the
Interior. The financing has pro
gressed to such a point that suc
cess is assured. Representati ves
of the company will leave on the
28th of this month for New York
to perfect the flotation of the
bonds. The Trust Deed to se
cure the Bond issue was author
ized at this meeting. The
grades on this new line are all
less than three per cent which
is very light for an electric road.
There are no heavy curves, only
one being ten per cent and the
rest are much lighter. Prospects
are very favorable for construc
tion work to begin in the near future.

ARLINGTON LUMBER Item
GOOD ROADS CONVENTION
(Concluded from first page.)
said that the aim of the associa
tion was to build a number of
state, rouds ns has been done in
other states. He cited the ex
ample of Los Angeles county in
California, which recently ap
propriated the sum of one and
millions for the building of good
roads. He explained that the
purpose of the Good Road move
ment was to.arouse greater inter
est so that the matter of appropri
ation could be presented to the
legislature in a clear manner.
He said that some such luw as
the Johnson road luw would
probably be presented for pass
age at the next session of the
legislature.
After all the biggest obstacle
to good rouds in this state is
man's selfishness. John Doe is
afruid that his neighbor will
have a better road in front of his
field than he and he opposes the
whole movement because of sel
fish interest Others are con
tinually criticising the county
court for not expending the mon
ey to better advantage. The
fact of the matter is that the av
erage county court does as well as
it can with the limited amount
of money at its dispoal and can
not make much of a showing be
cause the people of the differ
ent sections of the county want
a little work done in their re
pective localities.
The speaker rcfered to convict
labor and said that the convicts
could be used to advantage in
the building of state roads.
Judge Scott favors the appoint
ment of a state road comission
to profitably look after
the repairs on highways and
take general supervision of the
roadbuilding.
Judge Scott said that the other
numerous duties incident with
the office of county judge made
it very difficult for him to devote
much time to road question. The
road question should be left to
county commissioners and a com
petent engineer. "The import
ant thing in building roads," said
he, "is to have a solid foundation
or rather a good dirt basis which
should be thoroughly rolled with
a biz roller before any rock is
applied."
The big rock should be put
down first, then a layer of small
er crushed rock can be applied
and the top of this which must be
thorouchlv rolled, a coat of
screening can be added, this last
layer must also be rolled. Six
inches of crushed rock when
properly rolled will make a
splendid road. In speaking of
the local crusher, he said that
the screen was not of the right
kind because it let the screen
ing and the crushed rock go down
together.
Principal J. C. Sturgill made a
few remarks on the "Relation of
the Good Road3 Movement to Ed
ucation." He said that real ed
ucation was the process of so
cialization and that it places one
in a correct relation with every
movement that goes to promote
the public good. Therefore it is
natural that the schools should
be interested in the movement
for good roads. Good roads will
do away with provincialism and
bring the people together, pro
mote commerce and the public
welfare.
Geo. B. Dukek, of Mayville,
spoke on general lines and was
ready to assist the movement.
He stated that good roads meant
much to the success of the farm
er. He was able to haul his
produce to market or to the stat
ion in a more adequate way and
with less expense. Better roads
will enhance land values.
J. A. McMorris thought that
the present more or less unsatis
factory condition of the roads in
this county was due 10 lack of
purpose and that sufficient mon
ey had been spent to give this
county tolerably good roads.
The musical and literary pro
gram was excellent and each
